That is great news!
Mine rolled 10K this year and going strong. So I am updating things (bushings kits) and possibly new shocks so that I can enjoy it even more.

Nice to see that speedometer at the 20,000 mark. Does the heart good!
Got my 07 VL to a little over 16,000km this season.
Your wife has good reason to feel proud! Now get out there and roll it over to 30,000!

Incredibile! To paraphase STC, "she's got a real... good snowmobile." Your wife should get her own yamaha commercial.

Post like these that make me feel much better about having to spend a bit more money to fix up a few loose ends. 20,000 km's on this high revving engine is an achievement for sure!

And there you have it! If Yamaha thought there was any reason at all to change your oil filter, they would've told you too!pat the rat said:your right,also,i went by the book on this one but i've never changed the oil filter since the first oil change at 500 km,

That's allot of miles on 1 filter.
I know Yamaha recomends every 12000km, but I wouldn't go that far. Most people shy away beacause it's a hassle to get to. I was able to remove mine through the suspension with only removing the lower cowling ( modified oil filter wrench). The owner before me hadn't changed it at all for this reason.
I'll be changing my filter every season with an oil change!
